DNA Nanotechnology 2024

DNA represents a promising source for the realization of new and unique functional units and materials with novel properties, which will be the main theme for this meeting. Especially the emergence of novel DNA superstructures and their potential for new functionalities with unprecedented lateral as well as molecular resolution will be discussed, as well as approaches for integration and upscaling.

DNA Nanotechnology took place at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology from May 23-25, 2024.
Many thanks to all participants for this great conference, the outstanding presentations, exciting questions and interesting discussions.

Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology

At the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) in Jena, scientists use light to find solutions to questions and urgent problems in the fields of health, environment, medicine and safety. Under the motto “Photonics for Life”, they research light-based technologies that make our lives safer, healthier and cleaner. Especially in the field of optical health technologies, Leibniz IPHT, in cooperation with partners from research and industry, is specifically promoting translation: the transfer of research results into applicable solutions – from Ideas to Instruments. » IPHT Website
